He didn’t take advantage of her. He didn’t even wake her up.

Allie rolled over and blinked at the beam of sunlight that seemed determined that she be conscious at nine the next morning.

Nine.

She couldn’t remember the last time she’d slept that late. The days since coming to Alaska not considered, of course.

She rolled to her back and stretched. Gavin had been there. She wasn’t sure how she knew, but she did. But he definitely wasn’t now.

He was probably already working.

He did a lot of that. And he seemed to love every minute of it.

Frowning, she pushed herself up out of bed. She didn’t want to think about how much Gavin seemed to love Alaska and Bend. Nancy had said that he was still basically a newcomer, that everyone was waiting to see if he’d stick. But she knew Gavin. This was an adventure, a challenge. He’d stick. She knew it.

But he said he wanted to marry her. What did that mean? What was she supposed to do with that? If she said yes…well, she couldn’t think about that. That was way too complicated.

Thinking about the puppies and polar bears in Gavin’s life instead, she showered and dressed. This time when she pulled on an outfit that she’d bought just for her honeymoon, she felt only a tiny twinge of guilt. She counted that as progress. The truth was, she’d said yes to Josh for the wrong reasons, but he’d also asked her to marry him for the wrong reasons. They were equally wrong, she figured, and overall it was a good thing they hadn’t gone through with it.

She brushed through her hair, letting her thoughts go to Josh and the Wedding That Wasn’t. She didn’t try to cut them off before the guilt took over. She just let her mind wander.

Knowing Josh, he was pissed. Not so much that she’d left him at the altar—she winced anyway, knowing that it had to be embarrassing if nothing else—but that she hadn’t done what she’d promised to do. Josh Brewster had never made a promise in his life that he hadn’t kept. She was pretty sure that Josh had lost all respect for her. Which hurt a little. She’d known Josh forever and he really had been there for her through the worst time in her life. But he deserved to be with someone who loved him…really loved him.

That made her thoughts drift to Devon.

And that made her sad.

She and Devon had been tight at one time. Allie didn’t have a lot of girlfriends. She knew it was because she didn’t have time to maintain another relationship in her life and she regretted that at times. But she wouldn’t have traded the time she spent with her mom for a bunch of gab sessions over chai lattes with anyone. Her relationship with Gavin had cut into other relationships too. She was often busy or gone on evenings or weekends. But again, she wouldn’t trade those times.

Still, it would be wonderful to have someone she could talk to about Gavin.
